Y83-2500 Hydraulic Metal Briquetting Machine with 2500 kN Force, 800 kg/h Capacity & PLC Automatic Control for Steel and Aluminum Recycling

Y83-2500 Hydraulic Metal Briquetting Machine for Steel Chips and Aluminum Turnings Recycling

Product Overview

The Y83-2500 hydraulic metal briquetting machine is designed for compressing loose metal chips, steel turnings, aluminum shavings, copper scrap, and cast iron filings into compact cylindrical briquettes for easier transportation, storage, and furnace charging.

This model adopts a hydraulic compression structure with automatic operating control to improve metal scrap density while reducing material handling volume inside machining workshops and recycling facilities. The machine is suitable for continuous briquetting operations involving ferrous and non-ferrous metal chips generated during turning, milling, cutting, and machining processes.

With a nominal hydraulic force of 2500 kN and an output capacity of approximately 800 kg/h, the Y83-2500 briquetting press is widely used in metal processing plants, scrap recycling stations, aluminum recycling workshops, and steel chip recovery lines.

Main Features

High Pressure Briquetting Structure

The machine uses a hydraulic compression system with a maximum hydraulic pressure of 25 MPa to produce dense cylindrical briquettes suitable for storage and furnace feeding operations.

Suitable for Various Metal Chips

The Y83-2500 briquetting machine can process:

• Steel turnings
• Cast iron chips
• Aluminum shavings
• Copper scrap
• Brass chips
• Mixed machining waste

Compact Cylindrical Briquette Output

The finished briquette diameter is approximately Φ100 mm, which helps improve material density and reduce loose scrap volume during transportation and storage.

PLC Automatic Operation

The equipment adopts automatic hydraulic control for repeated briquetting cycles, reducing manual operation requirements and improving production stability.

Continuous Recycling Operation

The briquetting cycle length is approximately 12 seconds excluding feeding time, making the equipment suitable for continuous metal chip recycling applications.

Technical Specifications

Working Principle

Loose metal chips are fed into the compression chamber manually or through auxiliary feeding equipment. The hydraulic cylinders apply high pressure to compress the scrap material into cylindrical briquettes.

The finished briquettes are then discharged automatically for collection, storage, or direct furnace charging. This process helps reduce material volume and improve recycling efficiency for machining waste materials.

Applicable Materials

The Y83-2500 hydraulic briquetting press is suitable for processing:

• Steel machining chips
• Aluminum turnings
• Copper shavings
• Cast iron filings
• Brass scrap chips
• Stainless steel chips
• CNC machining waste
